Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim was critical of one or two players for losing the ball and not being in the right positions in the 1-1 draw against Ipswich Town on Sunday, according to the Sun.
The Portuguese told the Red Devils stars after the game in the Portman Road dressing room that their performance was a five out of ten, warning them that they must improve and learn quickly.
Man United raced into the lead after 81 seconds against Ipswich thanks to Marcus Rashford, but they were lucky to leave with a point as the hosts came close to taking the lead with a couple of chances.
Amorim knows the big jobs on his hands after seeing his team in action, but one week of training was never going to be enough to get them firing on all cylinders.
He wants Man United to keep hold of possession more and press constantly further up the pitch, and getting them to a stage where they start delivering consistently could take time.
They have some quality players capable of getting the job done, but a squad overhaul could be on the cards if the Red Devils are to be playing the way Amorim wants.
Scoring goals has been an issue at Man United for a while, and the 39-year-old will do well to get the best out of Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee.
He turned Sweden international hitman Viktor Gyokeres into a striking force at Sporting Lisbon, and whether he can reproduce that impressive transformation with the current crop of attackers at the Old Trafford club remains to be seen.
One or two quality additions in January could come in handy at Man United, and Amorim will be desperate to end his debut campaign with the club well despite arriving almost midway through the season.
